    pytest-metadata - provides access to test session metadata

    pytest-metadata is described as a plugin for pytest that provides access to test session metadata. That is such a humble description for such a massively useful plugin. If you're already using pytest-html, you have pytest-metadata already installed, as pytest-metadata is one of the dependencies for pytest-html.However, pytest-metadata is very useful even on its own. Links: pytest-metadata - The plugin we're talking about in this episodepytest-base-url - Adds the base URL to the metadata.pytest-html - Displays the metadata at the start of each report. See S2:E6: pytest-html - a plugin that generates HTML reports for test resultspytest-reporter-html1 - Presents metadata as part of the report.pytest-selenium - Adds the driver, capabilities, and remote server to the metadata.If you've got other plugins that work well with pytest-metadata, please let me know.

    pytest-check - allow multiple failures per test

    pytest-check is a pytest plugin that allows multiple failures per test. Normally, a test function will fail and stop running with the first failed assert. That's totally fine for tons of kinds of software tests. However, there are times where you'd like to check more than one thing, and you'd really like to know the results of each check, even if one of them fails. pytest-check allows multiple failed "checks" per test function, so you can see the whole picture of what's going wrong.

    The role of AI in software testing - Anthony Shaw

    AI is helping people write code.  Tests are one of those things that some people don't like to write.    Can AI play a role in creating automated software tests?  Well, yes. But it's a nuanced yes.   Anthony Shaw comes on the show to discuss the topic and try to get AI to write some test for my very own cards project. We discuss: The promise of AI writing your tests for youDownsides to not writing tests yourselfBad ways to generate testsGood ways to ask AI for help in writing testsTricks to get better results while using copilot and other AI toolsLinks: The cards projectA video version of this discussion: Should AI write tests?

    Python 3.14 won't repeat with pytest-repeat

    pytest-repeat is a pytest plugin that makes it easy to repeat a single test, or multiple tests, a specific number of times.   Note: This was an April Fools attempt, so the statement ..."Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work with Python 3.14, even though there is no rational reason why it shouldn't work." ... is NOT true.

    Mocking in Python with unittest.mock - Michael Foord

    This episode is a replay of a 2021 interview I did with Michael Foord.We lost Michael in January, and I'd like to revisit this interview as a tribute.  Michael Foord was a pivotal figure in the Python community and the creator of the mock library that's now unittest.mock. But he did so much more as well. His contributions continue to resonate within the developer community. This interview is just a small peek at his influence.  In this episode Introduction to Michael FoordThe Mock Library OriginsMocking and Testing PhilosophyCareer Path and ConsultingUnderstanding MockingThe Power of PatchTesting Strategies and DesignMocking External DependenciesTeaching Testing and Mockingpython.org has put up an "In memoriam" page for Michael Foord, and many people have shared stories and memories.
